Answer:
8.0
Step-by-step explanation:
The attached shows guesses until we have an answer accurate to 6 decimal places. Rounded to 1 decimal place, the answer is 8.0 years.
This (8 years) was our initial guess, based on the "rule of 72" which says the doubling time for 9% interest is 72/9 = 8 years.
Our second guess, at 8.1, was farther away from the doubled value, so the first guess at 8.0 is closer.
t = 8.0

Answer:
Carla has been running 7 miles each day for 13 days.
Step-by-step explanation:
Carla ran 3 miles on her first day, 5 miles on her second day and then 7 miles each day onward.
Let the number of days she ran 7 miles each day = x
Total distance run by Carla = 3 + 5 + 7(x)
= 8 + 7x
If her log book shows that she has run total distance = 99 miles
Equation representing her total run will be,
8 + 7x = 99
7x = 99 - 8
7x = 91
x =
x = 13 days
Therefore, Carla has been running 7 miles each day for 13 days.
